One thing you could try is go to config settings in alpine

  Main menu >> Setup >> Config

search for the setting "Customized Headers", and set it to something like this:

   Customized Headers   = From: Pierre Frenkiel <p.frenkiel@laposte.net>

If you use alpine's "Role" rules, it is possible to override this for
a given role (ie, you could set a different "From:" header value for
that role).

Well, I guess that would be true if you had sent it with alpine (but
it appears that you did not).
